About
Jenny and Ted discuss Extermination 8.5.
Episode Notes:
- One of Jenny's least favorite moments of anything ever!
- We're outraged by the medical establishment and also the PRT
- Maybe Taylor should have known better than to, uh, be a villain
- Taylor got here through a tragedy of circumstances
- Maybe she should've just joined the Wards, though
- Panacea predictions
- Scion is so Jesus-coded
- Theories about Taylor's power-up
- Was Leviathan trying to target Coil?
- Unfair that Leviathan's attention is focused on destruction at so many different scales
- The halberd is a beautiful prop
- The triumph of the bug people
- Passing a persuasion check
- The New Wave family saga
- How come Scion can't kill the Endbringers?
- We want an interlude from Scion's human contact
- Does Scion actually hate humans, or what?
- Effective anticlimax
- The best revenge is being better than Mr. Gladly
- Taylor's relationship to preserving her own life
- Taylor's not the main character in other people's lives
- Feelings about Bitch the hero and her connection to Taylor
- The Undersiders might have made it through this fight okay? The dogs definitely didn't though
- We want Armsmaster and Flechette to collaborate
- We were sold on bringing all these random capes to the fight
- Where's the tinker army in this fight?
- Strider's death has some concerning implications
- This arc is really creating a desire for the extermination of the Endbringers
- This story is about capes, but sometimes we have to remember the civilians
